Chapter 383: What about Liu Bei
Until he returned to Liaodong, Zhao Yun still felt a little unbelievable about this robbery plan.
He also went to watch the inventory when he was counting the supplies, because he wanted to know what he was going to do this time. As a result, he saw many things from the court, which made him both surprised, worried, and a little curiousβ
"How did the lord know that there would be so much gold and silver there?"
Not only Zhao Yun, but the rest of the soldiers in the same company were also in a trance, especially after counting the things they had grabbed.
Gongsun Du did not stop everyone's discussion when he was on the way, and only gave a gag order before returning to Yujin and before getting off the boat.
Soon, Gongsun Du was glad that he had given the order first, because as soon as he got off the boat, he received the news from Xun You, that is, the holy decree issued by the imperial court, and hurriedly rushed to Xiangping with a group of personal soldiers.
As soon as he arrived in Xiangping, Gongsun Du summoned Xun You and other civil and military forces. First of all, he got the holy decree from Xu Rong's hand, and after scanning it, his face was indifferent, so that people couldn't see what he was thinking.
"Do you think you should take it?"
The faint words sounded in everyone's hearts, which made the eager hearts of some generals led by Liu Yi, Yang Yi and others also stunned a little colder.
Liu Yi's mind was clear, so he got up first and said: "Lord Qiqi, my subordinates think that since it is the will of the imperial court, they should naturally take it." β
Yang Yi and others seconded.
Gongsun Du nodded expressionlessly, and did not make a decision immediately.
Seeing this, Wei You got up and said: "My subordinates think that although the Han family is declining, it is still orthodox in the eyes of most people, and conforming to the will of the imperial court is conforming to the will of the people." β
Gongsun Du still nodded and didn't say anything. Wei You had expected this, so he just bowed his hand and sat down again.
Then the rest of the people expressed their thoughts, although their reasons were different, some felt that the time had not come, and some felt that the Han family was still the desire of the people, but the final opinion was the same and should be taken.
Gongsun Du knew that some of them were genuinely thinking about him, while others still had residual thoughts about the Han family, although they were his subordinates, they did their best to do things, and there was nothing left, but they didn't want to cut off the last glimmer of hope.
To Gongsun Du's delight, Xun You, Wei You, Xu Rong, Guo Jia, Liu Yi and others, who he regarded as his confidants, were all genuinely thinking about him, rather than acting coyly. Especially there is a sentence from Xi Zhong, which simply speaks to his heart-
"Xiang Yu's bravery, it is difficult to have an enemy in ancient and modern times, but in the end he was defeated by Gaozu, why not? Because of its sharp edge, it is the main force to break the Qin people, and it is not tolerated by the Han people (Han Xin, Zhang Liang), Wei people (Li Shiqi) and others, all of whom help the weak Liu Bang, and finally set the world. β
In other words, it is - "Build a high wall, accumulate grain, and slowly become king!" β
Gongsun Du officially received the holy decree, but he did not have the slightest intention of marching westward. Knowing that this was a conspiracy, he was stupid and immediately did it, which is what a fool like Yuan Shao would do.
However, Gongsun Du did not do nothing, secretly, the army that Liaodong could draw out was gathered to the left of the Liao team, and when the time came, it was time to send troops to take Youzhou and completely confirm the name of Youzhou Mu.
In the process of waiting, the news of Yuan Shao and others also reached Liaodong.
Compared with Yuan Shao's practice of "releasing military power with a glass of wine", Yuan Shu did it more thoroughly. After receiving the holy decree, Yuan Shu first extorted a large amount of money and grain from the rich households in Nanyang, and then passed by Yuzhou, threatened Kong Ling with soldiers, and extorted a lot of money and grain, and then directly stayed in Yangzhou Shouchun, and ordered the county guards to come to visit.
The results are self-evident, except for the county guards of Lujiang County, who are also in the north of the Yangtze River, and the county guards of the other counties in the south of the Yangtze River, such as Danyang County, Wu County, and Yuzhang County, only sent individuals to come. Yuan Shu was furious. Then the county guard of Lujiang County fell into bad luck, originally Yuan Shu was ready to say yes, but now he was angry, simply and directly controlled it, and then sent an army to directly occupy Lujiang.
It is precisely because of this that Yangzhou was divided into two, and it was not until it was unified again that it was reunited.
Compared with Yuan Shao's brothers, Gongsun Du is most concerned about Cao Cao.
Cao Cao received the holy decree and immediately personally visited Chen Liutaishou Zhang Miao. Between the banquets, Cao Cao only talked about Fengyue, but he didn't say a word about the holy decree, and after the banquet was over, he said-
"Meng Zhuo, I'm here to make this trip to you."
"Resignation?"
Zhang Miao's face was shocked, and then he felt guilty, and felt that he shouldn't suspect Cao Cao, so he said, "Why? Could it be that Miao did something wrong and offended Meng De? β
This is not hypocritical, you must know that Zhang Miao and Cao Cao are close friends, otherwise Cao Cao would not have recruited troops in Chenliu before, not other counties. Moreover, Zhang Miao had made a lot of mistakes, and in the end he was fortunate to be rescued by Cao's father, and he was spared, and later Cao's father told Zhang Miao that it was because of Cao Cao's hard work that he came to help, so Zhang Miao was also grateful to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao shook his head and said, "Definitely! With the relationship between you and me, if there is really anything, will you not say it? β
After a pause, he said: "It's really the news that my father is seriously ill a few days ago, and I am very worried and want to explore it." β
Zhang Miao suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't want to lose the friendship between the two for some unknown reason. Then his face was full of melancholy, and Zhang Miao asked, "Meng De, is he seriously ill?" β
Cao Cao shook his head and said, "It's not clear, the old servant at home just said that my father was sick and wanted Cao to go back and take a look." β
Zhang Miao thought for a while, and said: "Meng De, you must know that whether you admit it or not, the imperial court has appointed you as the county guard of Chen Liu, if you leave Chen Liu without permission, I am afraid that Dong thief will seize the handle, and whether it is to ask you to be imprisoned or to spread the word to the world, it will not be a good thing for you." β
Cao Cao was puzzled when he heard this, and after a long time, he said: "My father is seriously ill, as a son of man, can't I go back and take a look?" Besides, I haven't received the decree yet! β
Zhang Miao shook his head and said, "You think so, do you still want to resist the decree and disrespect it?" β
Cao Cao's face was ugly, but he didn't speak again, as if he was acquiescing.
Zhang Miao was anxious and said: "It can't be like this, Meng De might as well send someone back to take a look and see how his uncle's illness is, and then make a decision." Now, you will be your Chen Liutaishou in peace. β
"What?"
Cao Cao seemed to be taken aback, and hurriedly said: "How can this be, if Cao really does this, wouldn't he do the evil thing of robbing his friends of the inheritance, and make the world laugh!" No, never! β
Zhang Miao nodded with a smile, and then persuaded with satisfaction: "You and I are both Han ministers, and since the imperial court has a holy decree, how can there be any reason to be disrespectful?" β
Then, without waiting for Cao Cao to say more, he said: "If Meng De doesn't think that Miao's talent is insufficient, Miao is willing to help Meng De, even if it is a pen officer." In this way, no one will say that Mende's is not. β
"Meng Zhuo, this ......" Cao Cao was still hesitant, but not as firm as before.
"Needless to say, the decree must not be disobeyed!"
Zhang Miao has completely made up his mind, he has been friends with Cao Cao for so many years, not to say it clearly, but he also knows that Cao Cao's ability is far above him, especially not long ago, Cao Cao is a letter (Jiaozhao), he mobilized most of the people in the world, and he understands that he is far from Cao Cao. Now that the imperial court has a holy decree, it is also excellent to respond to the situation, and then throw it under Cao Cao.
Zhang Miao's talent is not low, otherwise he can't sit in the position of Taishou. He also faintly saw that the Dahan Mansion was about to fall, and among participating in the competition and taking refuge in others, he chose to take refuge in Cao Cao, a friend.
"The thief is really insidious and cunning!"
After Gongsun Du received the news, he didn't think it was true. Cao Cao gained control of a county more easily than the original history, and the development was bound to be more rapid, which made Gongsun Du have a sense of urgency, and finally couldn't help but curse: "Take your father as an excuse, I just want to know who you will use as an excuse to seize Xuzhou in the future, or your father?" Then your dad can have enough hard work! I hope he can live a long life and be your excuse every year! β
The calm of Liaodong has made Youzhou have a lot of undercurrents, but everyone has not shown it.
Gongsun Chan was the closest to Liaodong and was under the most pressure. After half a month of torture, Gongsun Zhan made a decision to personally bring people to Liaodong.
After meeting, before Gongsun Chan could talk about his intentions, he was stunned by Gongsun Du's question-
"What about Liu Bei, who is with you?"
"Xuande?"
"Yes, that's him! Where is he? β
Cao Cao has already gained momentum, and Gongsun Du will not give up paying attention to other people, especially this Liu Bei, who has obtained the true biography of Liu Bang and seems to be the reincarnation of Liu Bang, has paid more attention.
Gongsun Chan replied: "As early as before entering Jizhou, Xuande left with his second brother Guan Yu. β
"Left? Did you say where to go? β
"It's not clear, but it seems that I vaguely mentioned that I want to go to Chang'an to help Your Majesty."
"Huh?"
Gongsun Du feels that this may not be impossible, the current Liu Bei because of Gongsun Du's birth, without the great merit of beheading the Zhang Jiao brothers, can be described as a mediocre and unknown person, if you want to get ahead, you really need other methods, and entering Chang'an to get the name of Uncle Liu Huang is one of the ways, and it is the best way.
Gongsun Du was basically sure that Liu Bei was going to Chang'an, but he had many doubts in his heart: It's just that who gave him the idea? The eyes are so vicious.
